We used HI-FX to transfer some money, and we have got a special offer of double baggage allowance. When I called up (thanks to a PIA member!) - they said it was not for 475 visas.. but then I asked to speak to the Manager and they have reviewed the list - 475 is now on it!!

So we are now taking 40kgs luggage each - yeah!! That makes me feel a bit more relaxed, esp as we're shipping stuff out early so will have to live on that stuff here too.

We transfered our money through Hi-Fx and didn`t think of asking them ,but after being told by Emirates that we were only allowed 20kg each (after our stuff had been packed and shipped) we ended up air freighting 2 big boxes over for the princely sum of £600

Only because we flew to Melbourne with Emirates then switched to Qantas to get here

This is great news Alexis, i'll certainly be hoping to do this too. I meant to post you a well done on your visa, know you had applied the day after us.
